Islands-Fruit Salad, My Style!
"I improvised with this combination. Instantly it became one of my family's favorites. Best of all, it is quick and easy. You can use Granola instead of nuts and lemon yogurt instead of lite vanilla, if you wish."

Took me a while to find a mango that I wanted to use in this recipe, but once found, this recipe was a snap & the resulting salad something to write home about ~ VERY, VERY NICE! We enjoyed the combo of fruits AND the inclusion of dried cranberries! Used a rounded measure of the coconut (love the stuff!) & some very fresh fat-free vanilla yogurt! Thanks for sharing a great recipe! [Tagged, made & reviewed for one of my adoptees in the current Pick-A-Chef]

I'm 20 something years, with some big plans for next year (God willing), but I dont work. I'm deaf, I love going out, writing, partying whenever I have a time, I'm mom of two little brat ones, I love them so much with all my heart and soul. With all of my hobbies, I am an average gal I guess who obsesses over the Steelers lol.
